I've updated the bug.

Actually the hook works, as in the correct symlinks are created now that
the langpacks are back. However...

I thought I had these figured out, but I've been fruitless in getting
localized search plugins to work *at all*, which has blocked progress on
them. I can see with `strace` that e.g.
`$TBB_INSTALL/distribution/searchplugins/locale/de` is being accessed,
but nothing is loaded from there, only from
`$TBB_INSTALL/browser/searchplugins`.

Any ideas?

If I cannot get this to work, I think we'll have to resort to a
workaround, possibly by something like this in the tor-browser script:

    # Set TBB_LOCALE to the one in
/var/lib/tails-user-session/browser-locale.js
    if [ ! -e "${HOME}"/.tor-browser/progile.default/searchplugins ]; then
        mkdir -p "${HOME}"/.tor-browser/profile.default/searchplugins
        cp
"${TBB_INSTALL}"/distribution/searchplugins/locale/${TBB_LOCALE}/*
"${HOME}"/.tor-browser/profile.default/searchplugins
    fi


Thoughts, if it comes to that?

Well, any help with getting localized search plugins to work would be
appreciated.

Cheers!
